Nippon Signal Co.,Ltd.

Greetings

We are moving forward with our business in line with our corporate philosophy, "Contribute to society through advanced technologies for 'Safety and Reliability,' with the aim of realizing a more livable society."

To date, we have exported products to more than 20 countries, and we will continue to use our advanced technologies to contribute to the growth of railways, which are seen as a better transportation mode now that environmental concerns are being raised worldwide.

Company Profile

Since its establishment in 1928, Nippon Signal's aim was to give Japan the ability to use its own railway signaling technology and develop it further. Since then, we have supported Japan's railways with technology for safe and reliable operations, and in this way we contribute to the betterment of socio-economic conditions. We supply a wide variety of railway items, including: various railway signaling and safety systems (operational control systems, automatic train control[ATC]systems, automatic train stop[ATS]systems, etc.); ground-based equipment (interlocking systems that control railway switches and signal lights, track circuits, level crossing system, etc.); information display systems for railway stations; and devices for station operations (automatic ticket gates, automatic ticket vending machines, etc.). Over the years, we have progressed from older methods like semaphore signals to the advanced equipment of today, always basing our manufacturing on fail-safe principles, always working for rail transport safety. That is Nippon Signal.
